Legend of the Black Dove - Part 9

Legend Of The Black Dove  

                  (Part 9)   "The Voyage To Where ?"

 

The weather is cold and the sea calm as the 'Columbia' goes out to sea. 

Norrington and Jenkins finally fall asleep in their cabin while on deck 

the captain fears something wrong with the ship, the weather picks up 

to a squall as the 'Columbia' gains tremendous speed and a strange 

mist engulfs the ship. She is travelling an amazing 2000knots and

then suddenly slows down. They are in a harbour once again, but 

where are they ? It is now daylight, it having being night just an hour 

before going to sea. The jolt from sudden stopping awaken Norrington 

and Jenkins and they head up on deck. From the captain,  Norrington 

finds out the ship has travelled to some unchartered  land, he 

orders for a boat to be lowered intending to go ashore on a 

scouting mission and asks for volunteers, Norrington and Jenkins go 

along with Captain Dennis Owens and his first officer Glenn Hill plus 

two crewmen.  As they approach Dover harbour (is Dover here an 

unchartered land?) the passengers and crew behold a very unusual 

sight: instead of sailing ships they notice ships of strange types moored 

in the harbour, along with the 'Enterprise'- the sister ship of the 

'Columbia' which must be brand new, but appears to be worn out and 

ready for scrapping. What are these strange ships, what had happened 

to their own ship ? The Captain decides he needed some answers 

(The Captain wishes to find out) so they all decide to board one of the 

strange vessels. When on board they go below deck  and find a propulsion 

system of strange design on the cellar deck. they are all amazed at what 

they see.  The captain discovers the bridge of the huge ship full of weird 

levers and instrumentation. Owens notices a placard on the ship's wheel 

mount on the 'Albatross' built at Newcastle in 1929, as well as a calendar 

dated 1930,and it all starts to make sense: the weird mist had transported 

them through a time portal from 1750 to the year 1930.....  

Is the crew of the 'Columbia' marooned forever in this particular time period ?

Is there any way back to their own time?

Make the discovery (Find out) in Part 10...."The Unknown World"

Israel?

A:  God rested on the seventh day after His six day week of creation.

Q:  What is every seven years considered to be?

A:  A Sabbatical year.

Q: What is every 49th year considered?

A:  A year of Jubilee and a year of celebration.  It began on March 16, 2025
and will end on March 16, 2026. It starts on the 49th year and ends on the
50th year.

Q:  Must the rapture occur on a year of Jubilee?

A:   Yes.  The rapture is considered to be a time of celebration.

Q:  God allotted 6,000 years for human history and it expires during
2032 AD.  From 32 BC and 2032 AD is exactly 2,000 years.
2032 AD minus seven years equals 2025 AD.

A:  Yes it is true.  Jesus also let his listeners know that there were just
two thousand years left for human history.  And on the third day of His
rising from the grave o was to be the day of rest.  It was not until the
book of Revelation that the Apostle John was informed about the
Millennium kingdom's period of rest.  It was a mystery until it was 
divinely revealed.  First to the seven churches of Asia Minor and
and now unto believers living in the 21st century.

Q:  Did this writer frequently tell her family that "If the rapture of the church
doesn't happen during the 20th century--it will most definitely happen some
time during the 21st century?  And that the 20th century was going to be
a time period of preparation for the rapture of the 21st century?

Q:  When the prophecy clock continue it's last minute's warning's countdown?

A:  May 14, 1948, when Israel became a nation after 2,000 years of exile.

A:  The prophecy clock ticked faster during the six day war of 1967 when Israel
recaptured East Jerusalem.

Q:  What is 2025 minus 49 years?

A:  The year 1976. That makes 1976 the last Jubilee before 2025!
 to be continued later.

Premium Member A MATHEMATICAL PERSPECTIVE OF JUNETEENTH

A MATHEMATICAL PERSPECTIVE OF JUNETEENTH
          (Apropos of 1619 To 2025)

In the proud history of Virginia, 
1619 was a significant year
In relating to the beginning
Of slavery in the United States.
It has been revealed, however,
That there were slaves present
In the country long before:-

It’s documented that in the year 1863,
President Lincoln signed the document,
The Emancipation Proclamation, which stated, 
Slaves in the southern states were free:-
What significant number of years in between?
Likewise, note that in the remaining areas,
Slavery was to continue to go on as usual;
Including the southern state of Texas.

The why of the “as usual” was because
Knowledge of the Emancipation Proclamation
Was not released in Texas until June 19, 1865:-
What a significant number of years in between?
It was needed by the state of Texas to solidify its economy,
Since slavery would no longer be able to be its rich foundation:- 

Despite the Emancipation Proclamation being delayed, 
African Americans in Texas rejoiced in thanksgiving grace
And encouraging faith that their continuous rebellion 
Would one day lead to complete freedom and equality:-
However, while the Proclamation may have released
Chained Slavery, political and economic slavery go on;
And so does the fight for total liberation of African Americans.

Consider the timeline between Juneteenth,1865, and
The 15th Amendment ratification, February 3, 1870;
Consider the timeline between the Jim Crow laws 
And their practice customs between 1870 and the 1960s.
While you are at it, mathematically, consider the time period
Between Juneteenth 1865 and the Voting Civil Right Acts, 1964;
Also, the time period between 1865 and The Civil Rights Act,1965:-

Finally, in celebration awareness, Juneteenth, 2025 consider
How long we’ve been back and forth in the ongoing fight
Against the Oppressor Syndrome,that continues to delay
The total emancipation of generations of African Americans,
Since Juneteenth, 1965 to today, Juneteenth, 2025: Consider:-
Ok, so much with respect to the title perspective of this poetic pen:
Go celebrate the Ancestors, fueling self with ongoing determination:-

Sadness Lasted Two Whole Days

And then paper went silent

leaving same sensation
again that bloody feeling of
big mountain exploding in heat inside my  armour plate

just couldn't write the words
with no love among them

their people beheaded one of mine
now trough mine borders theirs screamed for salvation
mine theirs
ours 
where did we displaced ours
when
how

always the same in that vicious circle 
love and hate chase each other endlessly
clocks are falling off the walls
no limited time period for hate is permitted
as evil is another face of good

just turn that goddamned another cheek

an eye for an eye isn't our god's choice
if it was
He would wiped us out from the planet
we killed his son
now we are killing someones children again
beheading
lifting the wall
strengthened by words
anchored through indifference
they are theirs

send them back

what is broken
can be mended
will never be the same

send them back

shouldn't write those words
with no love among them

they are terrorists
terror could be ours
but europe remains for europeans

send them back

our future is their raping our women
lifting our towns in the air
bombing our schools
churches
hospitals

theirs and ours
under the same sky
stood

And all of that is their now

did I wrote the words
with no love among them?

beheaded religion
and traditionally incorporated patriotism
have written false flag play
clean heart  has no misinterpretations

to write a life
only needed is courage
let that paper speak again

trough our borders theirs screaming for salvation
our is beheaded
already tomorrow  will be forgotten
as it is less painful
and paper  is mute

informations can't endure despair

have you seen them over there
standing in the rain
soaked to the bones
children
women
men
old man 
sick
cripled
exausted

heaven is trying to protect their imperfection
mixing his tears with their cry
cleaning them enough so they can merit  that crossing 

fragile thoughts
mine 
climbing over baptised palms
colliding them in prayer for

landless
nameless
lifeless
godless
why have you made us like this?

God went silent
ours

Premium Member A Place Called Forever

When was the beginning of time, and how long is forever?                                                                                                 Beginning implies that,  before then,  there was 'no prior'.

God has neither a beginning, nor is there an end of life to Him.                                                                                                         When, What, Why, Who, Where, and How are  'Forever Questions'.

God created humans at a given time and in a given space.                                                                                  Created in 'a forever state', only disobedience could alter such state.

They in turn surrendered their right to 'a forever state'.                                                                                                This right to 'a forever state' could be restored Through Christ Alone.

In a sense, we can hitch a free ride with him to 'a place called forever'.                                                                              Forever speaks to me of a time period whose period is unending.

Yet, in a larger sense, the two words, forever and period,                                                                                                     should never be allowed in the same sentence. Oops.

Forever implies there is time without an end,                                                                                                                 with a timepiece that has no winder.                                                                                                                                 

Forever implies that there is nothing                                                                                                                                         indicating to me when or if  'this is over'.

Before the beginning, there was God.                                                                                                                                               After forever, there will always be God.

The Final Blood Moon of the Church Era

Did you read the news yet?
There are unscheduled blood moons popping up everywhere. 
Just yesterday one in New Jersey and another in Illinois.
Blood moon, blood moon, what do you really mean?
Is it that you are trying to tell the children of God something super important?
What message is it that you bring?
As I have the ear of the Creator I have a little insight to the mystery.
If you are walking in the presence of the Holy Spirit you can also learn of this news.
Israel is going to begin its attack on the rest of the modern world for beginning to isolate it even more into a corner.
Israel will not stand down. 
How can Israel continue to exist as a nation if it doesn’t protect herself?
How can Israel go into exile and hide herself in the corner if it is the so-called “Nation of God?”
Israel must protect herself and Israel must not back down. 
The world’s superpowers are like the mighty Goliath and Israel has in her possession 5 smooth stones.
No matter who is buying up all the property in Israel, and no matter how many mosques are built there,
Israel belongs to King Jehovah and His Son Yeshua.
No piece of paper or international decree can undo what was initiated in the heavenlies.
So get out your lawn chairs and your prayer shawls and await the time period surrounding the next and final blood moon.
It should be a milestone for Israel and it should be a blood moon to remember. 
I also pray that anyone who reads this prophetic poem and does not have a sincere relationship with the One who owns all the real estate in Israel to get down on their knees today and pledge allegiance to the One True King. 
The prophetic clock is winding down and the Lord’s soon arrival is any day now. 
Do not delay doing today what needs to be done.
Do not be left behind to suffer the atrocities of the Great Tribulation.
If you think the world is bad now, wait until the Beast takes on the full authority given to him from the Lord of Hosts.
It may only be for a season, but it will be the worst time that this planet has ever experienced.
Bar none!
Give your heart to Jesus Christ today!
Tomorrow may be too late.

Premium Member You'Ll All Know When I Die

You'll All Know When I Die.
Ya wanna know why?
Because I possess what many would see as amazing abilities,
but these abilities of mine can be attained by anybody
who takes the time to learn, practice and read.
Do you know that I can trace any computer users actual physical locality?
I never would but I could easly.
It's as easy as tracing a phone call with Caller ID.
There isn't a system that any computer hacker can't infiltrate easily,
but there are precautions one can take for their computer's and their own personal safety.
For example use public computers at varying different localities
and that will make a computer hacker stalker's finding you an impossibility.
There is also out there a lot of diversion computer technology.
This will keep any hacker too occupied to get a fixed trace temporarily.
Log off within a specific time period and the hacker's trace will end unsuccessfully.
Which brings me back to the beginning, You'll All Know When I Die
because when I know it's all over for me, I'm gonna leave you all with a great surprise.
It's time for a Revolution in my once great country
being destroyed by political bureaucrats and corporations motivated by greed,
so just before I die for all of you I will leave
a new beginning for my once great magnificent country.
I will infiltrate the IRS computer system with a virus successfully
and wipe out every social security number of every citizen in the country.
You can then all not pay your taxes without fear of losing your assets and property.
Of course all this information can eventually be retrieved
but it will take generations for our government to achieve.
I only hope that my parting gift will be a rebirth and not destruction of my country,
but if something doesn't change soon in my once great country
The United States of America will self destruct anyway eventually.

Death of Magic

No tears, no self-harm
No casting aside of ideals
That World of Magic existed
And was slain before me

Time marches inexorably
And the arms race of tech does so at a sprint
Born on the cusp of change
I was promised a world that would not survive

How strange it feels
And how universal it must seem
For a time period to seem so mystical
When it isn't yet old enough to drink

Shatter, heal, shatter again
The hesitant world that replaced mine
Was marred again by the specter of plague
A death at a funeral that I could barely begin to mourn

It's become unfortunately easy to gaslight myself
To insist that nothing has changed but my perspective
And in a sense, it's partially true
Peeking behind the curtain to reveal the boring truth

Why did things something suck?
Rushed to completion by a sentient cloud of smoke
Barking stupid orders to keep endless green stacked
When the only thing truly infinite is cancer

Thus I watched as the leaves changed in summer
Rushed to completion by a uncaring cloud of smoke
As magic became corporate and sold back to me
Learning to code simply to see the binary

The brilliant orange of autumn gave way to gray
Not the brilliant vitality filled white of winter
But the pale gray of sapped energy
As Mother Earth's bounty is reaped before she can heal

Flashes of magic still exist and sparks
Bewildering and beautiful to the babies raised on gloom
As a curiosity of a bygone era
Rather than the brilliant greens and blues of a healthy globe

That world did exist
And I got to watch it die twice
As more and more clouds of bitter choking smoke
Pry my eyes open as they do it again and again

Where do we go from here?
And can we even care?
How many ends will appear?
God have mercy.

Premium Member The Eden Effect

Human nature has no sense of time and space as being an automatic element of change. Indeed, modern mankind bears the very same degrading capacities 

for evil as did our forefathers. Regardless of where they were stationed on the planet or what time period they existed, they had the ability to both do good 

as well as to be evil.  *Ancient history records a SILKEN ruler, rich and 
powerful, who had little concern for anyone but himself.  Moreover, records 

reveal that he came from good and decent stock, having descended from a family who shared graciously with the citizens of their domain. Drowning in a 

pool of OPULENCE handed down from his forefathers four centuries prior to his reign, it appeared that any trace of VICARIOUS blood had completely vanished.                                                                                 

Indeed, he had no concept of what it meant to act or suffer on behalf of another.  He ruled dictatorially and any who voiced opposition were at best 

thrown into prison or even worse, killed. His was a steady diet of violence and war with no regard for international laws. An ADORN of militaristic gear every 

day was his attire, and he demanded that everyone including his family to 
EXULT and render praise to him regardless of what he did or didn't do.  He 

made a MOCKERY of justice and goodwill, rendering void any IMPETUS for change.  It was he alone who created the vast CHASM of relational turmoi, and 

it would take time and God alone if ever there would be tranquility.  His depraved reign was proof.  The die was cast long ago in a garden called Eden.

Premium Member Merci, Mr Michener

I was born too late ... not far too late, but about seventeen years ...
   Or so, for I have always been too old-fashioned, (In a romantic, true love
      Sense), for the time period and era I grew up in. I knew this without question
         At an early age ... books were some of my best friends, always, and I first

Read my favorite novel before my tenth birthday ... it was on the shelves
   Of my dad's den, and the bright colors of the binding had always pulled at
      Me ... so, one summer eve, I took it to the porch swing by the lake, and
         Started. Oh, how it opened up a whole new world to me! An entrancing

World of exotic places and people and struggles! The settings and
   Characters and relationships were so unlike my own, and unlike anything
      I knew of ... it wove a hunger into my heart! A yearning to live in a bigger
         World and experience its wonders ... it placed a seed of romance and

Charm and excitement, deep into my being, and more importantly,
   Taught me the absurd inequalities of racism, at a time when my world
      Was primarily one color. To this day it is my dream to make that
         Wondrous place my home, and one day soon I intend to, (for real) ... 

Transforming those lessons and dreams into a reality. Bless you and
   Thank you, James A. Michener, for placing into my forever-romantic
      And old-fashioned child's heart, those "Tales of the South Pacific" ...
         I am forever grateful ... and ever changed.
